Primary 3 were set the task to recycle used books for World Book Day! They made bookmarks out of recycled books. Primary 3 created their own bookmarks by carefully cutting an old page into the shape they wanted. They could customise their stick in any way they desired to make it unique. They made such a fantastic job!
Primary 3 are excited to use them the next time they read!
Many thanks to all of the parents/carers who joined us on Wednesday for our class assembly – I really appreciate you taking the time to come!

Our Primary 6 girls attended a girls only football festival this afternoon at Deans Community High School.
There were 6 teams taking part in the festival from across West Lothian. We played 5 games in total and ended up joint winners with Bankton Primary School.
The girls were a credit to the school and themselves! Thank you to everyone at Deans Community High School for organising the event.
Well Done Pumphy!!!
Just a short message to remind parents/carers that the Primary 2/1 assembly will take place on Wednesday 28th February at 2.30pm. We really hope that you can join us!
Many thanks,
Miss M 🙂
As part of my PEPAS (Physical Education, Physical Activity and Sport) role within the school, I am looking to gather more information about your understanding of sport and physical activity within the local community.
Thank you to those who have already completed the survey at our most recent curriculum evening.
The survey will take less than 5 minutes to complete and will help with providing more physical activity and sport activity opportunities for our young people.
Thank you for your support,
Miss Walkingshaw

Hello everyone,
Just a small request from me! I am looking to create a set of resources which can be used across the school for outdoor learning activities. Attached below is a list of the types of things I am hoping to collect – if you happen to have any of these at home and wouldn’t mind donating them then that would be greatly appreciated. They can be handed in to me or left at the school office, where I will pick them up.
Many thanks in advance!

This week in Primary 6 we have been learning more about our topic for this term: The Human Body Systems. We were learning about the Skeletal System and the main roles it plays within the body.
We were set a challenge where we had to create a support for a tennis ball which would hold it high above a table. We discussed the different features of structures, what would work well and what would not offer enough support. This was to replicate the role that the skeleton plays in supporting the body.
Below were our two winners who were rated by their classmates as having a 10/10 rating!
This week, Primary 2/1 were learning about shapes!
We explored examples of solid 3D shapes and discussed how they were different to flat 2D shapes. We were also able to identify real-life objects that were 3D shapes. Primary 1 children learned the correct names for 3D shapes and Primary 2 children were classifying shapes using their own criteria.
We linked our new knowledge of shapes to castle building and recognised that some parts of castles were 3D shapes (e.g. a cylinder as a tower, a cone as a turret roof, a cuboid as a drawbridge). We then worked in teams and used construction blocks to create our own castle models.
Check in with us again next week to see what else we have been learning!

Primary 6 went to the Sky Academy, Livingston yesterday to take part in creating a movie trailer.
The children worked as groups to create a fictional movie trailer which they were able to keep and show to our parents/carers at home.
We had a great day and can’t wait to go back again someday or even become movie stars in the making!
